I am sure in their own minds they are hero's for taking action, even though it is almost always a self serving political move to sell oneself to the public.
"Look everyone, I did something, I'm a great leader, vote for me!!!"
These sort of actions show the trendy/faddish, media driven, activist and political whoring nature of some of these officials. These are not the type of people you want as judges that should be rational, consistent and constitutionally based. May you be conservative or liberal, in all reality you should be seeking folks that are more professional/principled, measured, strategic (big picture) in their actions when they fill such positions.
Once this is over, and it will be sooner than most think, because like everything this is a typical American over hyped sensationalist politicized bullshit story, those officials that took such actions to rob citizens of their basic constitutional rights to promote themselves should be removed from office. If we want to turn this corona virus scare into something that has any value, use it as a litmus test for politicians and government officials.
Good. Keyboard warrior tough guys will have to put up or shut up.
Sue on 4th amendment and habeus corpus grounds.
No due process, illegal search and seizure, the list goes on and on.
HOW CAN THEY DO THIS IN AMERICA?
They have the virus. This isnt just keeping normal people at home. These are disease carrying freaks who want to spread it.
This isn’t particularly egregious.
Why does he want to be a Typhoid Mary?
Well, the “after this is over” gets farther and farther away...
They would definitely win a civil rights case.
About ten years from now.
Could charges be brought against them as well? Along with lawsuits?
This violates Equal Protection Clause, False Imprisonment and probably 50 other existing laws.
I hope KT has a huge budget surplus because they have no chance of winning a lawsuit challenge.
Just out of curiosity, what does Kentucky require for those folks testing positive for AIDS. Do they require them to tell folks with whom they have liberal relations about their disease?
Nothing like fascism to run the country.
When the risk of trying to do this becomes too great, they’ll stop.
Good luck with the lawsuits.
There was a little thing called the Spanish Flu in 1918—and there are stacks of lawbooks on the subject...
Feel free to read them.
In this case I support this
They can do it when the people willingly surrender their rights.
Even more. I originally saw this on MSNBC. China sent the virus here to kill us and then sent drones to take away our civil liberties.
Just like every flu that has ever come down the pike, you're either going to get it or you won't and that's up to your body's immune system. Shutting down all businesses, mandating "social distancing" (Will Websters recognize that as a new word?) ain't going to protect you, it's just going to delay the inevitable......That's just the way it is.
“In this case I support this”
I guarantee you that you have been exposed. Everyone has. I suppose you will wear an ankle monitor for the rest of us to be sure you never leave the house.
Coming to a flubro near you.
LOL, I don’t wish this on FLubros.
But anyone that knows they are exposed, should self quarantine out of consideration for other people. When they’ve been ordered to self quarantine, and don’t, Then the courts are right to take more aggressive actions including order monitoring.
Monitoring is better than throwing them in jail at the first violation.
This is a once in a century situation. It’s not the Socialist Apocalypse that every stir crazy person thinks it is. It’s a pandemic. A dangerous virus that we are still learning about.
